ImportError: No module named django_graphviz-0.1 about django-graphviz

rename the directory django_graphviz-0.1 to django_graphviz if you're using the
default project. Or add 

'yourproject.graphviz' to settings.py INSTALLED_APPS

Here are my steps documented:


Printing Django Models as block diagrams

Installing GraphVis support on OSX - Mark Eckdahl
2011-10-26


Tasks accomplished:
Install Graphics Engine (GraphVis)
Install Python driver (pygraphvis)
Install application to export models (django-extensions)
Export models to image files from command line



After a bit of a hassle here is what worked for me on Snow Leopard version of 
OSX.

1.  Download and install the Application GraphVis version 2.26.3 version (a bit 
more OSX friendly than 2.28 from notes on site) - This is the graphics display 
engine software.

    http://www.graphviz.org/pub/graphviz/stable/macos/snowleopard/


2.  Install Python driver to link to GraphVis - pygraphvis

    pip install pygraphviz


3.  Install django-command-extensions - Note I actually downloaded source and 
ran [sudo python setup.py install] from source folder as part of my debugging, 
but probably overkill.

      pip install django-extensions

3b. I copied the django_extensions folder from the distribution into my [apps] 
folder for my Django project, note this is not the top level folder, but a sub 
folder.  Again probably overkill.

4.  Edit your settings.py file and add the following in the INSTALLED_APPS 
(generally you will have a list, and just add {'django_extensions',} to the 
list.

      INSTALLED_APPS = ('django_extensions',)

5.  Then with your project directory as your current directory, enter this code 
at the command prompt: (Note: /path/to/image{.png} should be replaced with the 
your desired file name for generated image file)

      python manage.py graph_models -a -g -o /path/to/image.png
